[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 238209, member: 1991"] I'm going to try to dig that one out of the library (husband, if you read this, can you check out the library over the road from you?) MWM, don't count on being able to control where your son lives and how he chooses to take his life - I now have a difficult child 1 who is not only very suddenly living independently when I never thought he would, but he is the "man of the house" with a wife to look after. They aren't on the phone, their mobile phones are mostly out of range when home, I really worry about the pair of them trying to cope with the early weeks and months of marriage (and all that it entails) and now he's staring possible bankruptcy in the face. In some ways, he's gone further than I ever thought he would. In other ways, it is terrifying and I just want to drag him home (with wife) and fix everything for them both. The last thing I want, is for thie marriage to fail simply because it all got too stressful. But if I step in and interfere, I could precipiate the very thing I don't want. It's even more of a tightrope walk than I ever thought I would have to deal with. I'm hoping the book can help. If I can, I'll sit down with daughter in law and share it with her, because she is now difficult child 1's primary carer, like it or not. Marg [/QUOTE]
